Abstract
The nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily is one of the largest groups of transcription factors in living organisms. Oestrogen related receptor (ERR) is a class of nuclear receptors closely related to oestrogen receptors (ERs). In this study, the Nilaparvata lugens (N. lugens) ERR2 (NlERR2) was cloned, and the expression of NlERR2 was detected by qRT‐PCR to explore the distribution of NlERR2 during development and in different tissues. Using RNAi and qRT‐PCR, the interaction between NlERR2 and related genes of the 20‐hydroxyecdysone (20E) and juvenile hormone (JH) signalling pathways was studied. The results showed that topical application of 20E and juvenile hormone III (JHIII) affected the expression of NlERR2, and NlERR2 could affect the expression of genes related to 20E and JH signalling pathways. Furthermore, NlERR2 and JH/20E hormone signalling‐related genes affect moulting and ovarian development. NlERR2 and NlE93/NlKr‐h1 affect the transcriptional expression of Vg‐related genes. In summary, NlERR2 is related to hormone signalling pathways, which is also related to the expression of Vg and Vg related genes. Brown planthopper is one of the most important rice pests. This study provides an important basis for mining new targets for pest control. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
